Well it means that the coil on the "control circuit" I'm guessing that the primary side (coils have primary and secondary sides) is getting to much voltage, so there are a few options, theres an open along one of the wires going to the coil, the PCM is having a problem or the primary side of the coil is junk and its time for a new one. CHances are its the coil crapping out or an open some where.
